For a lot of people, sitting at home finally comes with both merits and demerits. This essay will shed light on both sides and my personal reflection at last.
Life is not always about work, one needs to explore and have fun as well. Retirement is said to be the best time for doing this. Travelling is often expensive, but people at old age can do so easily with the wealth they collected over the years. Another advantage of retiring in sixties is that you can focus on your health and well-being. Staying at a job or career at this age will definitely affect your physical and mental health because of workload.
Having said this, there are few shortcomings of retiring at old age. People might have to face extreme boredom and lack of motivation when they leave their job and retire. This can lead people to fall into the trap of adult addictions and other bad habits. Additionally, some individuals also get depressed as they would have lost touch with society and friends. Losing a sense of meaning in life will take them to these scenarios which otherwise would have been forgotten had they stayed in their job.
